"Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited to all we now know and understand, while imagination embraces the entire world, and all there ever will be to know and understand." –Dr. Albert Einstein "Wonder is comes from the awareness of ignorance of religious mass"

Safdie Architects designed the Marina Bay Sands resort in Singapore bay. It is a 10 million ft2, $5.7 billion gateway to the city and a modern architectural wonder. The three columns of the 2,561-room hotel are flanked by a shopping center on one side, and a museum and convention center on the other. The complex also includes theaters and a casino.

The hotel towers curve into each other to open up interesting lobby spaces between. The world's largest cantilevered platform crowns the top of the towers, and provides a fascinating space reminiscent of the top of the Jumeirah Burj Al Arab. The Art & Science museum splays open like a cracked fruit. Floating pavilions and a large ice skating rink bring unprecedented luxury.
